 Donald Trump aims to save taxpayers US$1 trillion over the next 10 years with a little help from America's high-tech industry. "Our goal is to lead a sweeping transformation of the federal government's technology that will deliver dramatically better services for citizens," the president said Monday at a roundtable session of the American Technology Council, composed of the leaders of 18 U.S. tech firms including Apple, Amazon and Microsoft. "We're embracing big change, bold thinking and outsider perspectives to transform government and make it the way it should be, and at far less cost," he declared. Outdated federal IT is a big problem, the president acknowledged, but "we're going to be working on it and we're going to solve the problem, and up to a trillion dollars in savings for taxpayers over the next 10 years. Over a trillion." Although savings from upgrading federal IT could be substantial, the $1 trillion number may be overly o...

The website cites a source having hands-on experience with the smartphone(s), talking about the specifications and design rumours of the Pixel 2 and Pixel XL 2. According to the report, Pixel 2, codenamed 'Walleye,' will retain the 4.97-inch Full-HD display from the original Pixel. It is supposed to be powered by the flagship Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor with 4GB of RAM. However, internal storage could be bumped to 64GB in the base model. Unfortunately, the 3.5mm headphone jack won't be present in the Google Pixel 2. This is likely for making the smartphone thinner.

Bent telcos sparred with  Reliance Jio  over the matter of transparency of tariff plans, with  Bharti Airtel  and  Idea Cellular  saying that some offers, especially counter offers to retain users, need to be kept confidential to protect the competitive advantage while the newcomer batted for all plans to be made public on a common platform. Segregation between new and existing users while offering tariff plans should be allowed, the telcos told the Telecom Regulatory Authority of India (Trai) in an open house discussion on tariff assessment Tuesday, adding that retention offers - effectively discounts - were not arbitrary and instead based on a number of parameters including average revenue per user and customer loyalty. The regulator plans to issue guidelines or an order in 30 days on issues such as disclosures on tariffs, promotional offers, discount and duration, non-discrimination in service offers and predatory pricing. "When a customer wants to leave...

Facebook has introduced new tools in India that can be protected from downloading and sharing profile pictures. This step can reduce the misuse of photographs. With the help of profile picture on Facebook, people find each other and connect with each other. Nonetheless, not everyone regards applying a profile picture as safe. Facebook researchers found that some women do not consider securing their profile pictures secure in which their face is visible because they fear that their photograph may misuse them. New tools have been developed in association with many organizations, including the New Delhi-based Center for Social Research and Planning. Facebook’s product manager, Aarti Soman, said, “We are launching new tools which will give people more control in the context of who can download and share profile pictures in India.” “With it we are also exploring the way through which people can easily add design to the profile picture. Our research has found it helpful in preventing misuse....

Which is the best free office suite? You might not need a whole office suite, just a word processor. In case you didn’t know, Windows has one built-in: it’s called Word Pad. It lacks many of Word’s features but may have enough for your needs. If you must have Word, then here are a few ways to use Word for free. Now that Microsoft has made a concerted effort to switch everyone to a subscription model for Office 365, it’s even more tempting to opt for a free alternative. Our pick is LibreOffice, which is now far from being a mere off-shoot of OpenOffice. For most people LibreOffice offers everything you need, being just about as compatible with Microsoft Office as it’s possible to get. If you want a suite which copies Microsoft’s ribbon interface, look at Kingsoft Office Suite Free. Also, there are plenty of free PDF editors which allow you to convert a non-editable file into a format, such as .doc or .xls so you can change it. What’s the best free alternative to Photoshop? Photoshop is ...

Datasets: T2T has built-in support for several common datasets used for training. You can add new datasets to your individual workflows, or add them to the core T2T project via a pull request. Problems and modalities: These describe what kind of task the training is for, such as speech recognition versus machine translation, and what kinds of data to both expect for it and generate from it. For example, an image-recognition system would take in images and return text labels. Models: Many commonly used models are already registered with T2T, but you can add more. Hyperparameters: You can create sets of the various settings that control the training process, so you can switched among them or batch them together as needed. Trainers: You can separately specify the parameters passed to the actual training binary. T2T comes with defaults for each element, which is what’s most immediately useful about it. Several common models and datasets come baked into T2T, so you can quickly get started b...

The next version of Google’s popular Go language will improve performance,compilation, and scaling to large code bases. Go 1.9 should be released in August.Go 1.9’s creators expect almost all Go programs to run as they did before, given the focus on maintaining compatibility in this latest release. Speedups in the garbage collector, better-generated code, and core library optimizations should make programs run a bit faster. The math/bits package offers optimized implementations to manipulate bits. Functions in this package are treated by the compiler as intrinsics to boost performance. The Go 1.9 compiler supports parallel compilation of functions in a package, leveraging multiple processor cores. Go 1.9 retains the previous versions’ go command’s support for parallel compilation of separate packages. Parallel compilation is on by default but can be disabled. For scalability, Go 1.9 adds support for type-alias declaration for code repair. A change to the Go language, type aliases suppo...
